Will we (or he) survive

the terrible twos. Noah is in to EVERYTHING! Logan was busy but Noah is busy times 100. Constant. Have to put him in a high chair to shower so that he doesnt wreak havoc upon our abode. Enter his new way of tormenting. I just bought a new houseplant recently and it was doing pretty well (keep in mind I kill plants without even trying). While my back was turned and he was in the highchair he decided to reach WAY over to my new plant and pull one of the stalks out. Swinging it in the air like some sort of a lunatic. Dirt and leaves all over my floor, the highchair and the reason this all ocurred. I texted a picture to Mike. Caption "Look what your son just did". He texted back. "Is that your plant". My response. "Yep". His final words. "I will miss him". Yep, there might be casualties during the terrible twos.

Oh Amy. I am doubled over in my chair laughing... just picturing Noah swinging your plant around, and Mike's comment. Oh. my. word. I kill plants too, but I think even if they survived ME, they wouldn't survive my boys!!!

Miss & love you!

Ha Ha Ha! Good luck with that! My kids were absolute maniacs. I finally got to have house plants a few years ago and now we have a new kitten who won't leave them alone either! Good luck. It gets worse before it gets better...

That left me with a great visual! Hey, maybe that's the reason we adopted three kids who were all age three and over! :-) Good luck with the "terrible twos."

Oh dear lord I am SO right there with you. Help us. Michael is turning into such a little hellion. What happened to our little Magic Baby?
G O N E. He's 22 months and I'm already looking forward to his third birthday.

At least you'll have some wonderful stories to share someday ;o)

Thanks for the chuckle!
